According to my husband, I am a lost cause when it comes to finding anything I search for. This is probably why I developed a keen interest in visual cognition, particularly the contribution of scene knowledge to guiding everyday search. After my PhD at the LMU in Munich, I first worked with John Henderson at the University of Edinburgh and then joined Jeremy Wolfe’s lab at Harvard. In the “Scene Grammar Lab” at the Goethe University in Frankfurt, my students and I now want to better understand the development and contribution of scene grammar to guided search in real-world environments.
